Global Citizenship and Intercultural Learning

Acıbadem Schools defines global citizenship as people seeing themselves as part of a larger community consisting of not only their local communities but also all the people of the world and taking responsibility for the well-being of this community. Individuals who act with this awareness are sensitive to global issues and tend to understand different cultures.

Accordingly, school community members act ethically in personal, social, and environmental terms. Acıbadem Schools' global citizenship approach, which it adopts with the motto "We believe in the power and future of good people," emphasizes the importance of being a good person and developing these values and guides.

Acıbadem Schools defines intercultural learning as a process that develops the skills to understand and communicate effectively with different cultures. It embraces the use and sharing of all kinds of knowledge that benefit humanity and places importance on intercultural learning in this context. Intercultural learning at Acıbadem Schools includes the following elements:

• To expand local and global cultural perspectives, to get to know different cultures, and to be aware of cultural diversity.

• To communicate effectively and sensitively with different cultures.

• To care about intercultural communication and to have multilingual communication skills.

This approach supports students' individual development and social contributions, which are the cornerstones of global citizenship and cultural understanding at Acıbadem Schools.
